Glean Hits $7.2 Billion Valuation

Enterprise AI company Glean is on a meteoric rise. The startup announced a massive $150 million Series F funding round on Tuesday, led by Wellington Management, propelling its valuation to a staggering $7.2 billion. This latest milestone comes less than a year after its $260 million Series E round in September 2024, which then valued the company at $4.6 billion—already double its valuation from just months earlier in February.

Rapid Growth in Record Time

Since early 2024, Glean has raised a total of $610 million, with its valuation soaring from $2.2 billion to over $7 billion in just over a year. This rapid capital influx and valuation jump signal strong investor confidence in the company’s vision and business model. Glean also revealed it has surpassed $100 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR), reaching the milestone in only three years since launch—a rare feat in the enterprise software space.

Making Workplace Search Smarter

Glean is transforming how enterprise teams access information. Its flagship product enables employees to search across a company’s documents and apps—like Salesforce, Microsoft Teams, and Zendesk—using natural language powered by large language models (LLMs). This makes it dramatically easier for employees to find the information they need, regardless of where it lives within the organization.

Moving Beyond Search: AI Agents

Beyond intelligent search, Glean is expanding into AI agent technology—digital tools that can proactively assist employees, automate workflows, and enhance productivity. This broadens Glean’s offerings from a smart search platform to a comprehensive AI assistant suite designed for enterprise use.

Backed by Big Names

In addition to Wellington Management, the Series F round saw participation from notable investors including Khosla Ventures, Bicycle Capital, Geodesic Capital, and Archerman Capital. Returning investors also doubled down on their support, including Altimeter, Capital One Ventures, Citi, Coatue, DST Global, General Catalyst, ICONIQ, IVP, Kleiner Perkins, Latitude Capital, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Sapphire Ventures, and Sequoia Capital.

The Bottom Line

Glean’s explosive growth and high-profile backing reflect a growing demand for AI-powered workplace tools that streamline knowledge access and boost efficiency. As enterprises continue to adopt AI, Glean is positioning itself as a leader in the next generation of productivity software.
